While I was recovering…..

This gal, on the art show had the nerve to pull out a water polo cap as a hat. If this takes off, hit me up, I have at least five of these caps. These were hot on your head in a pool, I cant imagine the stank festering in that bad boy.

In Japan, everybody has a limited edition Bearbrick in their office.

In this 30 for 30, Andres Escobar was blasted in a night club in Columbia, dude was the heart of the country and even he wasn’t beyond the corruption, fuck Columbia. By the way, if you haven’t seen it, 30 for 30 is the best thing on television.

Here we have the top four ballers of all time. Not a bad four, in elementary school those foam joints were known as Gundam boots. Now, it’s hard to criticize a list that is very subjective, but how the hell is the Jordan 3 above the Jordan 1 or even 4. The Jordan 1 is the most timeless Basketball shoe ever, nobody fucks with 3s, unless they have to. You take away the wonderment of Tinker and Spizike and all you have is a jump man shoe.

One last note, notice how the top four all time shoes are either NIKE or owned by NIKE.

Check out COMPLEX for the full list

I love an Air Presto, these were ahead of their time when they first came out in the 90s.

Before Tiger came to golf the biggest total purse amount for a tourney was 6 million dollars, because of Tiger the amount is over 200 million. Never has any sport/game needed a player to keep it alive, and never has any one player impacted a sport in this way, not even Jordan.

and my personal favorite.. FRANK MIR!

These are important in terms of market share. The UFC brand has for the most part took out boxing. Boxings future depends on a light weight(BAD ASS) Filipino, when has that ever happened before? Correct, never!

Besides the obvious reason to to make toys these toys are strategic. If you walk into any toy section you will see a lot of wwf toys, Toys R Us and wal mart even give the figures a whole row. In a year or two those wrestling toys will be replace by UFC toys, guaranteed, First Boxing and now WWF/WWE. This was a smart move, if UFC wishes to maintain and grow they need to influence children, who will then grow up into ufc machines. Start them young with the toys and they will ask their parents to hook them up with mma classes and ask for ufc shirts and watch ufc on SPIKE, and it goes on and on. Good job marketing department of the ufc, no joke, these guys know the right time to makes move in the market they always have. Take note professionals and students, you may think its corny, but dudes have mad money and mad reach.

Lace up those runners…..

Limited-edition Studio Number One Poster Commemorates 25th Honda LA Marathon

Artist Cleon Peterson designed the commemorative poster, which not only includes three L.A.- area icons, but also the start of one of the largest marathons in the world and 2009 women’s champion Tatiana Petrova of Russia. The poster is composed of high-contrast images brightly colored in blue, red and black on a white background and is signed by the artist. Its a numbered edition of 1,050, priced at $45 each (not including sales tax) and $5 from each purchase will be donated to the Students Run LA program which helps to train at-risk youth to reach higher goals in life through the discipline of training for the race. While they last, posters will be available for purchase at the K-Swiss Concept Store at 2427 Main Street in Santa Monica and at the Studio Number One booth at the free-admission LA Marathon Expo to be held next Friday and Saturday at Dodger Stadium.

When you think of Los Angeles, the icons immediately come to mind – The Hollywood sign. Dodger Stadium. Miles of beaches.

“This is a unique and exciting artwork,” noted LA MARATHON LLC creative director Peter
Abraham. “The icons of Los Angeles reflect the remarkable new Stadium-to-the-Sea course we will debut on March 21, which begins at Dodger Stadium and finishes near the beach in Santa Monica. Cleon Peterson has created a great souvenir of the 25th Honda LA Marathon.”

ABOUT LA MARATHON LLC:

Had to get the one that looks like the upperplayground graphic.

I saw a lot of dudes spittin game at the gun club. I guess if you want to impress her, shoot a lethal weapon.

Having never been to the gun club, I was surprised to see how easy it was for people to be handed fire arms and bullets. Another thing that stood out to me was the 30 second tutorial given on how to load and use a gun, I know its not rocket science, but somebody could die if you fuck up, I’m just sayin.
